I made this for a friend who likes pop art and also seems to have ketchup with every meal.





It's worked in long and short stitch, with some backstitch and satin stitch. As I didn't want the soft texture of embroidery floss it's stitched in cotton machine thread, except for the green and gold sections. I wanted a bit of a departure from my usual style and from stitching figures, so decided on this.
